City Learning Centre Goes On-Air With HHB
The contract including system design, equipment supply and full installation service was awarded to HHB following a rigorous tender process. The work involved converting two office/meeting rooms into a fully functioning and
acoustically treated radio production facility, equipped with a Sonifex mixer, P Squared radio play-out system, AKA studio furniture and Røde microphones.
"The new radio studio provides an effective resource for students of all ages to develop skills in voice based communication and the creative use of ICT," commented Jonathan Lowe, facilities manager at the Centre. "HHB really took the time to understand our needs and were able to provide invaluable assistance at all stages of the project, from audio and IT system configuration, right through to room design and final installation."
The result is a facility flexible enough to handle everything from a class of school children, to the one-on-one teaching of professional radio presentation skills. During a highly successful openingg event at the Centre, the studio was used for a live broadcast on local commercial radio station Dune FM via an ISDN link.
Commenting on behalf of HHB, educational sales manager Andrew Hingley said: "Radio production technology offers educational institutions an affordable platform for developing core communication and ICT skills. North Sefton City Learning Centre has invested in a valuable facility, which will equip its students and clients to take full advantage of the exciting new opportunities now emerging in Internet Broadcasting and Community Radio."
